death metal is best as low pitched, slow and rythmitic as possible. hate eternal...origin...these are bands that are the definition of what is eating death metal away from the inside into the crap that is metal nowadays. listen to old decrepit birth then listen to the new stuff. saddening.

Cannibal Corpse
Bolt Thrower

Deicide
Obituary

I think Obituary are very cool; would definately like to see them live. Fav songs are Final Thoughts and Don't Care. I got a cool name for a death metal band Forgotten Fetus

Anyone still consider Amorphis as a death metal band?? I would find it hard to do that. They have no doubt matured into a new direction but they're still a killer band!!! How about Cerebral Fix, always liked their sound as well.

Seems to me quite a few of you don't know what death metal is. There are different types of death metal.

Brutal death metal which would include Suffocation, Inveracity and Decapitated

technical death metal which would include. Necrophagist, Spawn of possession, Atheist, Origin and other bands

Melodic death metal which would Include Arch enemy, Arsis and at the gates

Blackened death metal which would include BElphegor and newer stuff from Behemoth ( or how ever you spell it )
Hopefully that helped. Some of you named some seriously killer bands though sooooo this lesson in metal is not intended for you. This is more for the folks you think Lamb of God or pantera is death metal or anything close to it.

Beneath the Massacre F***ING SICK

I love melodic death. What happened to in flames?

In Flames We Trust USA!
